GitLab Account Registration Rejected – Request for Assistance

Hello everyone,

I recently tried to register for an account on gitlab.gnome.org, but my registration was automatically rejected due to an IP-related restriction.

I am not using a VPN or any cloud hosting service, so I believe this may have been a false positive.

My goal is to contribute to the Arabic translation of Orca (GNOME screen reader) and to participate in accessibility improvements within the GNOME project.

I have already sent an email regarding this issue but have not received a response yet, so I’m posting here in case someone from the infrastructure team can assist or advise on the next steps.

Could someone please review my case or guide me on how to proceed?

Thank you very much for your time and support.

Best regards,
Ahmed Bakr
